Monica was great! Such a relief to get detailed updates on my cat each day as I was away on vacation. She took excellent care of him and made sure our place was clean when she left (litter box + carpet spot cleanings, plus she watered our plants). She's very sweet and you can tell a natural animal lover. I would definitely book her again!

Troy has been nothing but amazing, not only with our dog but with everything he does! Our pup is a bit people selective and moose was comfortable in no time due to Troy being patient and knowledgeable about how to handle a more reactive dog. My husband and I would 100% recommend him to take care of your furry friend too! He is always on time and makes sure he leaves the house cleaner then when he got there!

Jessica was an excellent choice to catsit while we were away for Christmas. She was very communicative and sent tons of pictures each visit. She was also kind enough to take out our trash, bring in the mail, and she kept the litterbox spotless. I would hire her again in a heartbeat!

This is the 3rd time we hired Jessica to care for our two cats - one that needs insulin shots. She was once again awesome. She made sure to arrive 12 hours a part twice a day. Jessica assured me that out cat with diabetes ate the required amount before giving her an injection and also takes the time to give them both love and attention . She is the best!

About: Reliable, Loving Pet Care You Can Count On 🐾 Hi! I provide dependable, stress-free pet sitting and dog walking for busy professionals who want peace of mind while they’re away. I’m a dog lover through and through and have two of my own—a 5-year-old Cockapoo and a 12-year-old Shih Tzu Bichon—so I understand firsthand the different needs, personalities, and energy levels pets can have at every stage of life. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priority. I follow your routines closely and make sure your pet gets consistent care, attention, and affection—whether that’s a walk, drop-in visit, or extended care. What sets me apart is clear communication and reliability. You’ll always receive timely updates, so you can relax knowing your pet is in great hands without having to check in or worry. I treat every pet like family and every home with respect. My goal is simple: make your life easier and your pet’s day better. If you’re looking for trustworthy, attentive care with a personal touch, I’d love to connect! Because I work from home and am my own boss, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive, reliable pet care throughout the day. This flexibility makes it easy for me to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, and companionship breaks without rushing or cutting corners. Being home most of the day also means your pet isn’t left alone for long periods of time. I’m able to give consistent attention, monitor their comfort, and adjust care as needed based on their routine and personality. My schedule allows me to be responsive, dependable, and present—so your pet gets quality care and you get peace of mind knowing someone is truly available and engaged. I’m happy to care for your fur baby as long as they are comfortable around other dogs. While we don’t have a fenced yard, I enjoy taking regular walks with the dogs around the neighborhood paths to keep them active and happy. I’m also available for in-home stays, which can be a great option if your pet feels more comfortable in their own familiar surroundings.

Geni was a superb sitter for our 2 cats! She was an outstanding caregiver who was thorough and thoughtful. We were away for 8 days and came home to pristine conditions and happy kitties. Her photos showed a lot of love and attention. We will definitely book Geni again for our next vacation!

Monica sent updates and pictures every day so I was reassured they were alright. I’ve already requested another booking with her.

Sincerely amazing, took pictures of everything that I wouldve asked for without me even having to ask. Super sweet and considerate detailed notes with every visit. Cleaned up any messes which was so sweet. One of the few people on here that really knows how to care for cats and does so excellently. My cats loved her especially my scaredy cat who is afraid of everyone. I sincerely do not believe I’d book with anyone else after this amazing expirence.

We were truly lucky to have Dawn as our cat sitter for nine days while we were traveling outside of the US. From the very beginning, it was clear that she genuinely cared for Boogie and Ollie and treated them as if they were her own. She followed all of our detailed instructions carefully and kept us updated, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. I know it can be challenging to care for pets in someone else's home, especially when there are many little routines and preferences to remember, but Dawn did a fantastic job. Our cats were happy, comfortable, and well cared for when we returned home. We sincerely appreciate her help, professionalism, and the kindness she showed to our cats. We would gladly trust her with Boogie and Ollie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.

Ashly was so kind & caring towards our elderly kitties while we were away. She stopped in twice a day to visit and give medications - they were definitely spoiled by the special attention! She let me know when one wasn’t acting normally and checked in an extra visit just to make sure all was well. Can’t wait to have her care for them again. 💕

She visited often and was very communicative, providing updates and photos throughout the duration. Even through the snowstorm she did her best to get here and make sure he was well taken care of! I would definitely recommend her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Lovington on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 526 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Lovington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lovington. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
